Maintenance and Cleaning the
MINI PATEND
MINI PATEND
It is absolutely essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-fluid
residues must not build up on or within the fixture. Otherwise the fixture's light-output will be
significantly reduced. Regular cleaning will not only ensure the maximum light-output but will
also allow the fixture to function reliably throughout its life.
A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning fluid is recommended,
under no circumstances should alcohol or solvents be used!
The inside optical system should be maintained only by authorized persons. Please contact
your local dealer.

5.2 Circumference and Interval (rule-of-thumb)
